Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

Speed ​​up copying of text in Windows!

Speed ​​up copying of text in Windows!

Today, we can hardly imagine working on a computer without the famous copy/paste option. I believe that you copy and paste some text at least once during the day.

Copying and pasting text in Windows is usually done with shortcuts ctrl + ci ctrl + v (see more useful shortcuts), and it's fast and efficient enough. But there is a faster way!

A free tool called "True X-Mouse Gizmo" was created to speed up the process of copying and pasting text.

How?

This tool copies text as soon as you highlight it!

All you have to do is select the text and it will be copied, and after that, you just need to click the dot where you would like to paste the text.

Copying process

Highlight the text as usual and True X-Mouse will automatically place it in the Clipboard. What you had before will be thrown away, so keep that in mind.

Good to know: Windows 10 has a built-in history of copied texts that you can access with the win + v shortcut.

Paste process

Now you can paste that text and you have two scenarios:

  1. you want to paste the text into a blank part of the document
  2. you want to paste text over other text.

True X-Mouse automates both cases.

Case 1

To paste the text into a blank part of a document you just need to click the mouse wheel and that's it.

Case 2

If you want to paste the text over the existing one, you need to mark the text you want to replace and click the wheel.

True X-Mouse is smart enough so it won’t copy the newly highlighted text if you’ve previously copied some.

If at some point this program does not do what you expected, you can always use ctrl + ci ctrl + v.

It may seem confusing, but once you get used to the program, it will be much easier, simpler, and faster to copy and paste the text.

Note: Because the middle click (wheel) is used to paste text, you will not be able to use it for other purposes.

Download and installation

Go to the official site and click the "Download" link. When the program is downloaded, move it to a folder from where it will run. This is a portable program which means it will not be installed anywhere.

Android TV Box - a guide to buying up to 30 euros

What is Android TV Box? This is a great solution if you want to add a " Smart " function to an existing TV . With this device, you can watch live TV online for free (later on), play games, upload all kinds of files, watch movies (from USB, over the internet, phone…), listen to songs, surf the internet, use social networks… or everything you can on your Android phone. It is usually a cube-shaped device (but it doesn't have to be) and has various inputs and outputs. It connects to the TV via an HDMI cable , but some also have an AV output over 3.5mm that goes to the familiar 3 cinches, so you can also connect to an older TV (even to SCART if you have an adapter). It is also standard for these devices to have WiFi , LAN port (RJ45), IR Remote , at least 2 USB ports , support for high definition video formats (these cheap ones often have 4K support), and usually come with a remote .
